- Breath of Fire is a role-playing video game series developed by Capcom. It originated on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1993. The series is notable for its recurring characters and ambiguous continuity; though each game is its own self-contained story, the names of the two lead characters are usually Ryu and Nina.
The story commonly involves an adventurer named Ryu (name usually changeable) who can shapeshift into different types of dragons. Over the course of his journey, he befriends Nina, a girl with wings. At its inception, Breath of Fire took place in a medieval fantasy style fictional world. Following the mainstream success of Japanese role-playing games in the 1990s, the series began using the original anime-style artwork for later Western releases of the games (rather than the Westernized art that was drawn specifically for the Western releases of the first two games), post-apocalyptic themes, and an increased emphasis on character development. Despite these changes, the core structure of Breath of Fire remains largely linear and plot-focused. As of 2016, six Breath of Fire titles have been released, with three games being ported to handheld game consoles as well as Nintendo's Virtual Console, and two ported to the Nintendo Switch's Super NES games library. By 2020, the series had sold over 3.2 million copies.

Capcom needs to revive this IP and not focus so much on resident evil and monster hunter
I could wish for the same honestly.
My bro told me that it depends on what the executives at Capcom would consider what's currently selling well and sticks it. That is why they focused on Resi and MonHunt so much. Worst contender is they don't bother with Darkstalkers, because they know casual gamers prefer something like Street Fighter, as that one has actual humans using their fists to fight, not monsters with weird things, so they can relate to it.
As much as I hoped for a new BOF or MML3, voting doesn't matter, because they will only stick to the current popular thing more.
I don't mean to sound cynical. It's just that I've hoped and hope for something good to happen but eventually got so tired of disappointments and just choose to let go and come to terms about it.
Same goes for Darkstalkers, Cyberbots, Project Justice, Demon’s Crest…
No one one cares about this niche garbage
Some day...
1-4 is the best of the series
A remake of Breath of Fire 2 would be very cool!
I'm replaying the series. Bof 1 looks soo old but still entertaining even after 20 years. 😂
BOF 2 is the best storywise
Same as me 😊
We do not talk about Breath of Fire 6, that aside, it would be great if Capcom decided to revive this franchise through a reboot.
Breath of Fire 3 was the pinnacle of all the BoF series for me
and 4
@@carloslarareyes5205 3 was better than 4 but 4 is still 9.5/10. Wish the story was handled more conclusively. Apparently they only had 9 months to make the game.
for me too love it i finished the game like 10 times or even more ;) the best
breath of fire 4 is legend
I remember myself as a child getting up earlier so I could play BoF 3 on my PS1 about an hour before I go to school. Loved it!
Man! I really wish we get a new sequel if not a legacy collection on newer consoles will also do for me.
They could stop in the iv 😅
I enjoyed every breath of fire up to 4. After that nope 😂
All these people who never beat 5... It was great (inb4 people claimed to of beat it)
They are salty people. They can't let go of the game being different rather than bad; so they need to trash it.
@@MigrantBirdStudio This.
I cleared that game 11 times now and even got the 1/4 ratio. Easily one of my most satisfying gaming achievements of all time. That game is so awesome.
3 has good story, 4 is amazing in all aspects except the story which is kinda ok-ish, 5’s game direction and music are the best.
This series didn't deserve the ending it got.
I don't want to talk Breath of Fire Dragon Quarter. It felt more like a revamp remake rather than a sequel or prequel. The fifth almost removed everything what the previous four Breath of Fire games elements it had before. Including Breath of Fire 6. At least the Breath of Fire 6 brought back the fantasy setting, anthropomorphic creatures and the concept of rebirth and bloodline generations. And, it had a reference to Mega Man Volnutt. The main protagonist of the Mega Man Legends series.
However they didn't bring back the combat. They made bof6 some weird auto battler.
the worst part is:
after "Breath of Fire 6" failed and was (understandably) declined by the fans, they stated that "there is no interest in breath of fire by the fans anymore" which is just stupid..
there is plenty of interest, but the interest is in games like Bo3 or Bo4, not in a gacha-esque game..
hell, just a remaster of bo3 and/or bo4 would literally sell millions of copies..
breath of fire 6 is a Devolution
BOF III the best in the franchise, incredible gameplay and context, deserves a remake. 🐉
I played bof iv and it's the best and the only turn based game i liked
BoF 5 vibes like playing RE: 2 😂 but RPG 3D.
3 and 4 were the best.
Breath of Fire 6 should be redone use the same characters and then add some bonus characters that way you have 8 party members like we used to back in BOF1 and 2. 6 are the main characters and 2 recruitable bonus characters. They should adapt the battle system from BOF5 which shakes things up with a cohesive story
The people here trashing V seem really salty. It was a great game that just felt different to Breath of Fire games.
Why 5 looks so odd???
I dont understand why you would only show the battle screen for some games and the overworld for others. would be nice to compare the overworlds or battle screens.
IV is da best
1 and 2 my fav. I going to finish 3 and 4. 5 and 6 nvm.
BoF 3 was my favourite, and I never got to play 4 but it looked amazing. I tried 5 and felt violated.
I highly recommend you play BoF 4. Trust me, it will be an amazing experience. I myself have played it for 4 times and it still holds up to this day. Currently planning to replay it some more !
4 was better in my opinion, more skill combos, more dragons, more characters, more mini games, deeper story, etc. You should really try it.
Just playing BOF2 on switch and wondered what the later games were like. Why did this game get worse with every iteration? Sten would have done a better job creative managing this franchise 😅. Oh well.
5 n 6 really looks werid. The games lost the identity
Glad i've stopped at 4
I need bof on PS5 pro new one please ❤
What a stupid way to show off Breath of Fire 3, what were you thinking?
BOF 1 and 2 , its ok
BOF 3 UUUFFFF damn boyis thicc
BOF 4UUUFFFF damn boyis thicc
BOF 5 : AMMM Valkyrie Profile 2??
BOF 6: WFQ is this, WEEEB ANIMEGIRL WAIFU DIABLO GAME?
the last 2 BOF, if you can even call them that are trash. We don't speak about them....
Como malograron a bof con esas bazofias de bof 5 y 6
Wtf is breath of fire vi 🤣🤣🤣
Lets just pretend 4 was the finale .....5 was bad. . . .and 6 was a mobile cashgrab that is just sad to see......
Don't you even include that insult of a game Dragon Quarters and BOF6. They are NOT faithful to the original games.
Well I see why the series failed, thanks to BoF 5
5 and 6 are trash
Capcom such a failed company anymore. I could tell they stopped giving a fuck when I played BoF4. The UI was a step backwards from 3 and the character background/development was just lazy.
Oh no no no, IV and II are the absolute best of the series!!
And you like being able to only turn into the “warrior” dragon during combat? I remember in 3 there was a whole gene system that let you pick what you transformed into.
Also Cray is just a lazy recollection of Rei only with a stick up his ass.
@@clydecash5659 yeah it felt lazy, especially with the map system, went from walking in the world to just moving cursor in a map, i was quite disappointed when theres no actual dragon transformation for Ryu, the gene splicing was definitely one of the best if not the best mechanics in the franchise (in my opinion), other than that i still like BoF4 combo mechanics
@@zwatchxd I totally agree. Gene splicing system was the best!
@@zwatchxd the cursor is optional, you only get it from a kid if you need it
but you will definitely need it because the map is huge dude, I don't think walking back from Chedo in the West to Wyndia in the East is a fun experience.
I first played 4 and knew 3 after, I still like 4 better. The gene splicing look awesome tho
